摘要:
Methods for evaluating micrometastases in a tissue region of a subject are described. The methods include administering to the subject a detectably effective amount of a tumor-targeted photoactivatable immunoconjugate; allowing a sufficient amount of time for the tumor-targeted photoactivatable immunoconjugate to enter micrometastases in the tissue region; illuminating the tumor-targeted photoactivatable immunoconjugate; obtaining an image of the tissue region of the subject using a fluorescent imaging device, and evaluating the micrometastases in the tissue region by conducting algorithmic analysis of the image. Methods of treating micrometastases in a tissue region of a subject are also described.

The invention relates to a sensor for determining the radiated energy of a type which is capable of converting oxygen into ozone, and to the use of said sensor. According to the invention, the sensor contains a measuring chamber (1) which can be penetrated by radiation, comprising a gas inlet (4) and a gas outlet (6), means (8) for supplying gas (9) containing oxygen into the measuring chamber by the gas inlet and for supplying gas into the measuring chamber via the gas inlet and means for discharging said gas via the outlet, an ozone element (10) for measuring the ozone content of the gas (9a) in the measuring chamber or the gas (9a) discharged via the gas outlet, and evaluating means (12) for determining the radiation energy from the measured ozone content. The sensor can, for example, be used for determining the radiation energy in an optical imaging system working with said rays. Said sensor can be used, for example, in a microlithography-projection exposure system.

An optical sensor and an electronic device having an optical sensor. The optical sensor includes: an optical waveguide containing a photochromic material; a light emitter that emits visible light to be incident on the optical waveguide; and a light receiver that detects the visible light emitted from the light emitter and progressing through the optical waveguide. A transmittance of the optical waveguide in relation to the visible light may be changed by the photochromic material as the optical waveguide is exposed to UV light. The optical sensor and the electronic device having the same may be variously implemented according to exemplary embodiments.

A validatable method for determining a photochemically effective dose for inactivating pathogens in a fluid sample is described herein. In particular, the instant invention covers methods for determining a photochemically effective doses sufficient to inactivate pathogens in a biological sample while leaving biologically active substances of interest unaffected. A batch irradiation reactor effective for inactivating pathogens in biological samples is also described.
摘要:
A method of broad screen detection, competitive dye desorption from a solid adsorbent, is described for quantifying the presence of a molecule or target analyte in the vapor phase, in solution, or eluted from a solid. In the function of an analytical element for implementing the competitive dye desorption method of the invention, dye or dye-precursor molecules adsorbed on the surface of an adsorbent are caused to desorb through the adsorption of the target analyte on the adsorbent. The desorbed dye or precursor is made detectable through sequestering of a radiation detectable species in the device of the invention. Such detection may occur, e.g., through absorption or emission of radiation in regions of the spectrum extending from the ultra-violet through the visible and into the infra-red regions. In one aspect of the invention, these processes occur within a multi-layer analytical element, in which the functions of the device may be executed by different layers.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a device for calibration in a method for the inactivation of microorganism in a biological fluid, comprising irradiating the biological fluid with an effective dose of monochromatic or polychromatic light from one or more light sources, wherein the effective dose is determined by measuring the effect of the monochromatic or polychromatic light on a dosimetric solution.
